also self employed, have some nice contracts with TV channels too so lots of perks.I get the odd annoying client (read: most) but they are annoying me whilst i work sat at home, feet up, coffee in hand watching (this week at least) Auf wiedersehen pet on tv :PCant really complain.

Mostly it's perfectly OK, and I really don't mind it, but wouldn't go as far as to say I enjoy it.

Occasionally I do. Sometimes I do IT training, and I do get a buzz from people saying things like "I didn't know you could do THAT - that's going to make my life so much easier". I love the "Oh!..." moments

I do like the relaxed atmosphere, easy-going boss and great colleagues too. I have a cushy job, really.

We're self employed - and my part of the job is really, really boring!! I'm on my own a lot and have to fill in my own time a lot...but I do get to surf the interweb as much as I want and watch "tv" and read - but it takes a lot of effort to go out of my head with bordom - my chair does go WHHHHEEEEEE though so that's not so bad

its not like i wake up in the morning and really look forward to going to work (i mean if i could give up work i would), but honestly ive worked in a lot worse places, and the bosses are the nicest ive worked for, so all in all i will be very british and say 'musn't grumble'!

I have a lot of flexibility with my job and can basically dictate to my boss what I want to do. But the systems they work to are awful and they cause a lot of problems. It makes the job challenging and interesting when it is in balance, but very frustrating the rest of the time
